Isn't this wonderful! I have gone back to Monday and have had "migraines" everyday! sorry, Im still a little skeptical of this multiple per day migraine and just can't wait to find out what the cause could be and worse yet , the treatment! Migraines....ok, sure.

Trust me my dear woman - almost anything is better than MS - it\'s the pits of a disease - give it time * they will work out what helps you, dosage, etc. - I had migaine for a whole month in \'95 - part from 6 days, when I had a break of a few hurs each day. lived in a mouldy house - in drought stricken area - it rained 1 inch in winter, then another inch or 2 mid Dec. - there ws no damp coursing-my back wall was against dirt: behind it went wet (on a steep slope!) and then the mould. I culd smaell it & washed all my linen: then moved b\'roon out-using only living room- 2 weeks later that also smelt (many others couldn\'t smell it at all)- then the 24 hr per day migraines. I ate breakfast -rolled oats & goats milk - some days: o\'wise just hid from people, light, noise, everything. Attempts to get Dr. useless: finall a locum came - I was so debilitated that she gave me pethidine- I\'d moved to appt upstairs. which wasn\'t mouldy, but it took 2 weeks to pass. The inection allowed me to sleep for 18 hrs &, I believe. broke the cycle - I weighed about 90 lbs. & looked awful! Was wobbly on feet - had problems with auras (as I also have petit mal epilepsy from accident in factory). Younger d. brought me back here, as elder wasn\'t speaking to me - I was too much responsibility, she just stopped coming - now ai\'m searching for her again, as she\'s refused to talk to her best friend - got letter today. Has quit drinking, but probably bec. she can\'t!. Won\'t talk to anyone - I think she\'s dying! Landline is disconnected, & friend told me her mobile is always on message bank! - I hope she\'s on hospital- but Canberra won\'t tell you if patient has hist. of mental illness. Fun, Fun -what a pair we are! Best wishes, JaneD.
Lorraine, one of my biggest wishes is that you find out what\'s going on. I feel so bad that you\'re suffering so much. It just doesn\'t seem right that it\'s 2007 and you have to go through all this pain. It makes me so sad. You have such a great attitude....you make me smile. -Jen
wishing a lifetime of no pain and no pains in the neck! LOVE YA
LIKE THE LADY SAID BE GLAD IT ISN\'T MS, I JUST WISH YOU COULD FIND SOME RELIEF.
